{"product_id":"wellbeing-economics-paul-dalziel-9783030066093","title":"Wellbeing Economics: The Capabilities Approach to Prosperity","description":"\u003cp\u003eEconomists have long sought to maximise economic growth, believing this to be their best contribution to improving human welfare. That approach is not sustainable in the face of ongoing issues such as global climate change, environmental damage, rising inequality and enduring poverty. Alternatives must be found.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis open access book addresses that challenge. It sets out a wellbeing economics framework that directly addresses fundamental issues affecting wellbeing outcomes. Drawing inspiration from the capabilities approach of Nobel Prize winner Amartya Sen, the book demonstrates how persons can enhance prosperity through their own actions and through collaboration with others.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book examines national public policy, but its analysis also focuses on choices made by individuals, households, families, civil society, local government and the global community. It therefore offers important insights for anyone concerned with improving personal wellbeing and community prosperity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Dalziel,Caroline Saunders,Joe Saunders\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3030066096\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783030066093\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Palgrave MacMillan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/26\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 196\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.46d","brand":"Paul Dalziel","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47579916632319,"sku":"9783030066093","price":31.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_693d4723-6036-4f4a-b0e8-f50a0a554bf3.jpg?v=1763877554","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wellbeing-economics-paul-dalziel-9783030066093","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
